You need to install flashtool, download stock firmware of your phone then flash it using flashtool.
flashtool
stock roms
stock rom .62 SK17i
GUIDE - Read it carefully
At the steps where your are told to hold the "Back" button you have to hold the "Volume Down" button instead (you should see blue LED)
P.S. I also have SK17i

I have applied this method for my mini pro & it worked for me well, backup of rom works with wipe data & dalvik cache as well, though didn't tried yet to install any zip file from it
not working guys,,,
Same problem here...
Guys i tried se tweek installer, install cwm.bat, and also manual method. but nothing works. it always freezes if i press volume down key.
Is there any other method to install cwm or any alternative to cwm to install mods..?
There are different kernels available that are compatible with the stock rom and include CWM recovery and various mods for overclocking or TUN/TAP, ...
But those kernel needs unlocked boot loader man.. I want cwm in locked bootloader.
could anyone just post an stock kernel with cwm installed.
As ftf format so that i can flash it with flash tool.
I have a rooted SE wt19i with CWM recovery installed and yesterday I wiped all the data, cache and system files to install Minimul Triumph ROM.
When I rebooted my phone it was stucked at the First Sony Ericsson screen and didnt boot into recovery. I have a Backup On My SD.
Please Help
have you tried flashing back to the original firmware using flashtool?
Yes i DId try but it doesnt even go to flash mode
Edit:I finally managed to go to flash mode. I flashed the firmware succesfully thanks kevin
First, I cannot find that kind of ROM for WT19i, could be wrong ROM to install. You can only install ROMs, that are built for your phone.
Second, you must have custom kernel to boot into custom ROM. Stock kernel only works with stock ROM. First install custom kernel(there's plenty of them in Development section, like X Kernel, Rage Kernel, bbooff's kernel etc) and then via CWM install custom ROM(install from sdcard).
Most custom kernels include CWM.
Please help me

wt19i does not have a built in recovery like the samsung phones.
you have to install it.
if you have root already, then proceed to this thread and follow instructions.

Unless you're talking about CWM recovery (keep pressing repeatedly volume down when you see Sony logo, until you enter CWM), there's also a so called 'safe mode', check this thread.

You can't install cyanogenmod before you have unlocked your bootloader. You can unlock by official sony method for developers (look in my signature for a guide) or by testpoint method. Otherwise you can't install a rom for unlocked bootloader because you aren't able to flash a kernel boot.img.
When your bootloader is unlocked, in most custom kernels cwm is integrated
Don't try to flash a rom for unlocked bootloader on a locked bootloader, otherwise your device will brick and you will have to flash the original firmware with flashtool!
Ah btw to install cwm on ics you must have rooted ics (you can't root ics like gingerbread firmware .42, you will have to do it like this) and then you can download the x-parts app from playstore which can automaticly install cwm
I rooted device and have X-Parts.
Installed Recovery 5.5.0.4 by pvyParts.
I am able to restart in recovery mode.
Do I understand it right?
Even if I have recovery installed I won't be able to install CM or other ROM with locked bootloader?

You can install roms especially made for locked bootloader, like ics based "real ics lite" or "MiniCMSandwich". There are some MIUI rom's around here, too, but stock rom is the smoothest

These are the apps on your sdcard. Be sure you have ca 1,5 gb of free storage on your sdcard when you start the backup. The size depends on how many apps are installed/etc but 1,5 should be good to be on the safe side

2- how i reboot in cwm ?? plz helpppppppppp
What file do you want to download and from where?
Install CWM, turn off phone, then turn it on and when the Sony or Sony Ericsson logo appears, press volume down many times, until a menu appears.
Just simply update your phone using SEUS (SonyEricsson Update Service). Just download it and follow the steps.
Its always work to update.
Don't forget, if it's help, simply click Thanks too :beer::beer:

For 2nd questions, you need to root your phone. Do you ever heard about how to root sk17i?
If you have rooted your phone, just download CWM installer from market, install it, open, and install clockworld mode. After you installed it, theres a menu to reboot your phone into cwm mode.
Feel free to ask more if you find difficulties.

If I have got you right, after you installing the custom ROM, without flashing the necessary kernel and without unlocking bootloader, (which is totally wrong) your phone gets stuck on the SONY logo screen right?
The solution now is to, calm down first, read the posts made here properly(I say this because you were told to unlock bootloader and to flash the necessary kernel before installing the custom ROM by a XDA member on this thread itself, but you did none of those) turn off your phone, and use flashtool to do a full flash of your phone.
Download the .ftf of your phone, ICS or GB, whichever, then flash your phone using that ,ftf file via flashtool, then follow the tutorials available here on XDA to root your phone (The tutorials differ for ICS and GB), root your phone, start it, download and install 'Xperia CWM auto installer' from the market, then install CWM using this app.
Then unlock your bootloader using the various methods available but be aware of the warranty issues involved.
Then flash the necessary kernel on your phone, there's a tutorial for this too on XDA, then start your phone, when the SONY logo brightens keep pressing the volume down key repeatedly and you will enter CWM.
Then follow the instructions on the thread from where you have downloaded the ROM you want to install and then reboot.
Voila.. you are on custom ROM of your choice my friend..
I have tried to make this as simple as possible, but if you still need more help, feel free to ask.
NOTE: Do not flash custom kernels without unlocking bootloader.
